In attachment, there is the flowgraph on GNU radio.
In the previous email, I meat that the result is the same regarding the amplitude accuracy, not regarding the value. When I change the amplitude or the gain on GNU radio, also the amplitude changes in the oscilloscope.

Thank you for your time.

Simona
What happens if, instead of using a constant, using a 10kHz tone, and offset your Fc by 10kHz, does it look better then?

    Can you post the flowgraph you're using again? If you changed
    transmit gain and amplitude, the result should have changed in
    amplitude, while the image you just sent has the fame magnitude
    the last one did.

        Thank you very much.
        I tried to send a signal with this features, but the result is
        the same (IMG_6590).
        I tried with every amplitude and every gain (Screenshot from
        2019).
        Before, I thought that it was a problem of reference signal
        and I changed it but the situation is not changed.

        Thank you in advance for your help.

        Best Regards,

            Turn up the transmit gain on the USRP sink. Start with
            ~40dB and transmit amplitude 0.3.

                I tried to change the amplitude but the amplitude and
                frequency are not accurate in the oscilloscope yet.
                If I lower the amplitude, the S/N is lowered then it
                is worst.

                    Waveform source amplitude is too high. Turn it

                        Hi Michael,

                        thank you for your interest.

                        I have two N200 and each one have two
                        daughterboard UBX-40; the transmitters are
                        connected by coaxial cable to an oscilloscope
                        (Rhode&Schwarz RTO2064) to check the waveform.
                        The version of UHD is 3.13.0.

                        I tried to send a constant signal using the
                        flowgraph (Screenshot from 2019-06-18
                        14-56-57) in attachment on GNU radio Companion
                        3.7.13.4, and on the oscilloscope I saw this
                        "IMG_6586".
                        Also, I tried to generate a constant signal in
                        Simulink model (16-42-17 & 16-14-04) on Matlab
                        R2019a but, on the oscilloscope, I saw this
                        "IMG_6584".

                        I tried to send a sine signal with the
                        Simulink model in attachment (16-46-10) and,
                        on the oscilloscope, I saw this "IMG_6583".
                        Also I tried to generate the sine signal with
                        GNU radio (17-08-58) and I saw this "IMG_6588".

                        It is possible to see how the amplitude and
                        frequency change in every case, I need to
                        obtain an accurate signal because I have to
                        measure the amplitude and phase in a
                        particular point in the circuit.
                        And in the previous email, I added that the
                        problem increases when I lower the carrier
                        frequency. All these measures were taken with
                        a carrier frequency at 3 GHz, but if I change
                        the fc at 1 GHz the shape is worst, e.g. IMG_6589.

                        Thank you in advance.

                        Best Regards,

                            Hi Simona - Can you please educate us as
                            to a few items?

                            * your setup: you have an N200 + some
                            daughterboard (which one) + some spectrum
                            analyzer (which one), connected ?somehow?
                            -> are you doing actual wireless Tx -> Rx,
                            or do you have a cable hooked up between
                            the N200 & spectrum analyzer?

                            * what waveform you're trying to generate,
                            and what is the actual flowgraph you're
                            using for GNU Radio? how are you
                            generating the waveform in MATLAB?

                            * which version of GNU Radio and UHD are
                            you trying to use?

                            * which version of MATLAB and it's UHD are
                            you trying to use?

                            The above might help someone to diagnose
                            your issue ... without it, we can make
                            some guesses but not much in the way of
                            specifics.

                            Please remember to "reply all", so that
                            others can see your response and be able
                            to chime in to provide help. - MLD

                            Dear Sir/Madam,

                            I am Simona Sibio, a student in Heriot
                            Watt University.
                            I am working with USRPs both on Matlab
                            and on Gnuradio, and with both softwares
                            I have the same problem: the shape
                            (generated by N200+daughterboard 10 MHz
                            to 6 GHz) is not accurate, in attacched
                            some photos.
                            At 1 GHz, the shape is worst than when
                            the carrier frequency is 3GHz.
                            It is not possible to measure the
                            amplitude and frequency because, also at
                            3 GHz, it is not stable.
                            Could you help me?

                            Thank you in advance.
